You don't have to be an art history major to appreciate the influence and impact of Pop art (you can just scroll through images of Jeremy Scott's spring 2012 show). From cans of Campbell's soup to comic strips, no object was off-limits to the pioneering American artists. They elevated the everyday, and in the process questioned just what it meant for images to be "high art."

Pop Objects and Icons from the Guggenheim Collection at the New York City museum explores the works of the movement's founders, featuring screen prints by Andy Warhol, a faux-payphone by Claes Oldenburg, and an anti-war oil painting by Roy Lichtenstein.

The exhibit, which runs today through February 8, places old masters next to new, so you won't feel out of place wearing your Prada `60s-inspired color-block dress to the Upper East Side museum.
